La Vida es una Tómbola is a compendium of texts by 50 Peruvian and foreign authors, written in a literary workshop during a pandemic year. With stories that touch on topics from love, heartbreak, infidelity, sex, friendship, fatherhood, and motherhood, among others, this is a book that explores human idiosyncrasy from brief looks at deep themes. The book is structured in chapters that represent the different slogans of the workshop and thus, each text addresses similar issues from a different perspective.
